I'd imagine electrons are so much more delocalized than the Gold nucleus, and coupling it with the fact that an alpha particle is so much more massive, dense while carrying immense kinetic energy; that the electrons of the Gold atom would have a negligible effect on the alpha particles
It came from a collection of old physics movies put out by the American Association of Physics Teachers many years ago. After searching for a while, I couldn’t find anything about the Rutherford experiment that was very interesting on RUclips.
Old is gold
Brilliant mind and labor of rutherford
Great video!! Thanks for uploading!!!
This is gold
Great Im searching for this only
Thanks man...
Awesome. I wonder if the electrons of the gold atoms also have an impact on the path of the alpha particles.

Experiment was not originally performed by Rutherford but by Earnst
Rutherford's full name was Earnest Rutherford
It was performed by his two assistants
It was preformed by Geiger and Marsden. Though Rutherford had interpreted what their experiment meant.
This where dumb people like me get confused 🤣
H. Geiger and E. Marsden
It's to good
its in my class 12 th text book 🗿
Do u have complete footage
This is all I had.
@@mmoverman from where did you get this?

Finally
we stan
Wooooiw
Hahahhaahahahha maxwelll
is he using an old oscilloscope?
It probably wasn’t too old at the time lol.

Nice! Gotta re-upload it
Is that Rutherford
No, just an actor playing a scientist.
Thankyou
You’re welcome! I have to admit, I was really surprised how popular this video has become.
Who is the scientist? He doesn't look like Rutherford (at least not with the images google showed off)
Probably just some random actor sometime in the late ‘50s.
